🧾 Can You Download and Complete Your Own Property Information Forms?

When you sell a property in the UK, one of the first things your solicitor or conveyancer will ask for is a set of Property Information Forms — often called TA forms.

These forms are essential to your home sale, but what many sellers don’t realise is that you can download and complete them yourself long before your sale reaches the legal stage.

Doing this early can help avoid delays, spot missing documents, and show buyers you’re organised and ready to move.

🏠 What Are Property Information Forms?

Property Information Forms are standard legal questionnaires used during the conveyancing process.
They’re designed by the Law Society and used across England and Wales to give buyers a clear picture of what they’re buying.

The most common ones are:

TA6 – Property Information Form: general information about the property, boundaries, utilities, planning permissions, and any disputes.
TA7 – Leasehold Information Form: for flats and leasehold properties, covering service charges, ground rent, and management details.
TA10 – Fixtures & Fittings Form: lists everything included or excluded from the sale.
TA13 – Completion Information & Undertakings: completed later by your solicitor as part of the final stage.

These forms make up part of the legal contract between buyer and seller, so they must be accurate and truthful.

📥 Can You Download Them Yourself?

Yes — absolutely.

You can access official or draft versions of the forms from several sources:

Through your solicitor or conveyancer – they will send you the official versions when your sale reaches the legal stage.
From the Law Society website – official, copyright-protected versions can be purchased directly.
From reputable property websites or conveyancing services – unofficial templates that mirror the official layout are fine for preparation.

👉 Tip: Completing a draft version early helps you collect all the documents you’ll eventually need — and it saves time once you have a buyer.

✍️ Filling Them Out Yourself

There’s no rule that says only your solicitor can fill out these forms.
In fact, doing it yourself can give you a big head start.

You can:

Fill in everything you already know (boundaries, warranties, EPC details, planning permissions, etc.).
Leave the legal or technical parts blank for your solicitor to check later.
Keep your completed drafts in your Pre-Sale Information Pack — ready to share with your estate agent or potential buyers.

Your solicitor will still need to review and submit the final versions as part of the legal conveyancing process, but by then, you’ll have saved valuable time.

💡 Why This Matters

Gathering and completing your property information forms early means:
✅ You spot missing paperwork before it becomes a problem.
✅ You can give buyers more confidence and reduce delays.
✅ You show your estate agent that you’re serious and ready to sell.
✅ Your solicitor can move faster once an offer is accepted.

It’s a simple step that can shave weeks off the selling process — and in a market where time kills deals, that’s a big advantage.
